Default how are the project black/dark plans selling?

Hi,

I was wondering how the project black/dark plans are selling? is there a huge spike in subscriptions like what tmo had hoped for? or are there the same or less? I know its really early, but i just want to know if anyone is biting. does anyone know? anyone who works in CS wanna jump in?

There has definitely been an increase in business for me. New activations, plus a lot of migrations. The big advantage for me as a sales rep has been the simplicity of everything. Having 12+ rate plans was confusing for a lot of potential customers. The new plans are much easier to explain and will save most (Not all) existing customers money in the long run.

I can't say it was quite as revolutionary as they implied it would be, but it's definitely a big step in the right direction.

There has been a buzz in the store. People like the bundling and the less confusion involved with selecting minutes.

They've all had them. AT&T used to have them daily when I was with them.

I decided to stay with my existing plan too.

If I went to the new plans, I'd have to wait for seven months before I could start saving $5 a month. Not really worth the effort.
